While national attention is focused on the multitude of crise% and
dilannas confronting our public eclucational system, many sma ll and locally
oriented groins of students, cannunity members, teachers; administrators
and others are marking to create more viable and valuable learning, environ-
ments in their own schools. Many of these educationally far - sighted
persons, are seeking to eliminate patterns of institutional racism and
youth oppression, the seeds of much of the unrest in our educational
institutions, This manual is written for them.

Uty a Manual on Resources?
Or
This book is directed to people involved in making changes in schools., It is
about RESOURCES: persons, organizaticns, or things Which can'be of assistance to yoU
in your own school change efforts. This first part of the manual begins with an
overview of the issues and concerns ih schools tndmf and some short- and leng-term
'strategies for system change. Folloding that is a discussion of how you can use
resources toenhance a school change program, including how to detennine what kinds
of nesouroesluould be most useful, locating them, and integrating them into your 1
cw progian. That section may be,vsed as an aid in planning and designing change
strategies as well as a guide to the roles resource persons will play in them.
The second part consists of a listing of agencies or consultant firA which'
offer various resource assistance to groups working for change. in their schools.'
In selecting these agencies, particular emphasis was given to scmautich have not
received broad publicityin some cases because their programs are focused in one
or mare local areas, in otger ca/sset because they have failed to gain national
attention. %'e hope that our.presentation of these agencies will be helpful to you '4
in several ways:
1. that it will direct you to resources which can be of innediateservice because they are applicable to the needs of your localsituation;
2. that you will beciane aware of the kinds of resource agencies orconsultant fidms available so you may be able to find a localagency with similar services:
3. that by seeing several exanples of inds of'resources availablein scan areas, you may get some ide ut resources and'servicesyin, WV like tr. develco foi yottr-on rozurnani-trineeIT------
This RESOURCE MANUAL is a cgmanion volume to two TRAINING MANUAIS--one addressed
to school administrators and teachers and the other addressed to consultants and non-\

r.

professional change agents in the school and community (students and parents). Bothof the training manucids: focus on developing skills to bring about school change that
will alter traditional norms of personal and institutional racism and youth oppression.
This manual.will focus primarily on the use of resources which are available onlyoutside of your local system: EXIT:MAL RESOURCES. Of course, it may well be that an
external resource provides the stimulus, training, etc. which will help you developyour own internal resources. Therefore, you will also find that this manual contains
much that is relevant to your work with internal as well as external resources: many
of the issues in the relatiOnship between clientv(e.g., you) and resources are similarfor both of these types. For example, for each tyre there are advantages and disad-
vantages which are based solely on the initial. "inside-ne4" or "outside-ness" of theresource. In dealing with external resources, this volume attempts to serve' the
_ following functions:
1. To provide a resource ,guide for those interested in programswhich attest to bring about school changes through the use of newtechniques as the advocacy of the heeds of oppressed interestgroups and the constructive utilization of conflict;
2. To introduce the emerging understandings of school problems andnew strategies for chanqe, as well as resources", to aid others inbecoming involved in change.prograns;
3. To stimulate thought on, and development of, local resources tofit the needs of specific local situations;
4. To underscore the inportanee of evaluating resources in termsof their appropriateness for carving local goals and changeprograms.

answers and responses to the dilemmas at Icand, ind it is that disagreerrent(conflict)
which frequently leads to ccrifrontations (crises). Let's start with these:

the political interest of some parts of thermntership to do exactly that: casting
conflict in a negative light is an effective strategy formaintainingpcwend control.

.follows that they can also be led to believe that the status quo is "good" and should
not be challenged.

"/Ferican way of life." I;ri one might expect, these massive:individual crises are not
counted among the costs of operating our schools. Of course, these crises frequently
lead to an interruption inithe.organizational routine and a point blank confrontation
with the decision makers. Then we do begin to hoar cries of "Crisis in our schools! ,"
for at that point the current centers of ,poWer are threatened. Unfortunately, it
is rarely revealed that such situations are a result of the Cnnsistant denial of basic
conflict in the system and failure to redress these individual crises.

Conflict utilization requires the creation of organizational structures supportive
of surfacing conflict in order to deal with it in meaningful ways before it escalates into
crisis. This necessitates a pdrspective in which conflict is seen as a norm* part of4;*
the organizational fiber sold in which mine exist for contending groups to view problems
with more clarity through group discussion and imaginative, thinking, .thus providing
both the impetus and direction for change. Moreover, it is necessary to have structures
which permit groups to.contend with one another legitimately, and to be mutually
responsible for outcomes. At tines it is necessary to encourage or clarify the conflict4
among contending groups--in a sense, to escalate it--in order to enhance opportunities
for dealing creatively with it. The processes of escalation and utilization can only
be performed in a coqtext of clear goals and their advocacy
ADVOCACY
Advocacy involves the total commitment of a leader, resource person or group in
utilizing Conflict or whatever activities or conditions are;in their constituency's
best interest. As an acknowledged style of change agentry, its "value-centricity".
contrasts sharply from the value neutrality espoused and claittod by most professional
roles: the advocate's purpose is to enhance, the status, reW4tds, prestige,. and Fower

centers of societal power and oontrorwhich appears in most supposedly neutral research,
training and mediation is rarely exposed. Conscidus adVocacy prpbably lends to greater
clarity about unmet seeds and unsurfaced conflicts, .permitting utilization and integration
of conflicti at higher organizationaLlAvuls. AdvOcacy undertaken for sareone else or }
ambiguous advocacy, as in the case of an adult pressing the rights and partisan interests of
juveniles, is somewhat risky, involVing potential legal prosecution as well as oxiflicts
with professional norms and ethics.

Power is in a sense a master variable. *Thronxfilit one can, or groups can,
'achieve control of their ends and of the distribution of rewards among many extending
advocates. In schools, power is largely in the hands of adult whites; it is formally
located in the adsinistrative offices, informally servant to the cstablished economic
and political interests of our society. Not much !influence is wielded by the, clients
of the educational processthe student and his parents; actually, very little is even
available to faculty menters. Unfortunately, scan of the most devastating effects, of
this situation result from very subtle and, therefore, not easily identified,bechniques
of power and control. For example, being in a position to define what does and does .
notiloonstitute a "crisis" (administrative Mut -down.of.the schools is, brutalization of
students is notl)... and other rules of the game (students are failing school instead of\

The questions above are only a sanple of questions that can be used to gather.
information. These oauld be augmented or changed in any way to fit your situation
and nebds.
If you decide to use these or an expanded series of questions in a "questionnaire
survey" you%nnast plan and be prepared to spend the time and money necessary for "coding
the data" (i.e., preparing the information for analysis) and analyzing the results
(i.e., adding up all the responses.for each question and figuking the average response,
and doing this for different sections of your samplegroup responses by sex, age, race,
grade, or curriculum and see if any differences show up), and also, writing up this large
quantity of informatiop.so others can understand it. Keep in mind your purpose in
gathering this information: to help you obtain the outside help you desire and need.
Ddret get involved in (or get talked into) more diagnostic research than:is necessary
for your purposes; work overload is a well -known stalling strategy.
It should not be too difficult to find people ba'assistwith.this diagnostic
research. Interested students can take responsibility for different Steps in the
.diagnostic prooess: designing the questionnaire (warding of the qUesticns is a partic-
ularly sensitive task); selectipg a representative "sample" of stuckmts to receive
questionnaires (see Appendix A); ,administering the questionnaire or keeping track of
questionnaires that have been filled out and turned in; coding the questionnaire data;
designing and conducting upen-ended interviews with score students (usually a smaller sanple
than would be receiving the questionnaire) i prbducing materials (questionnaires, reports,
etc.); and presenting the findings. You may be able to get scae technical assistance
fran conceined teachers or to al college students who have had sore experience in
doing this kind of research--or these people may be able to put you in touch with a
sympathetic college faculty nemberiftwauld be willing to lend his skills and talents
tons effort.
-16-
Even during diagrcsis, the process of change will have begun: as other \tudents
become involved in and aware of the research that you are doing, a polittbal support,
base is being built for the proposals resulting from that research. In getting
technidal assistance fnanadults in order to da the diagnostic research, -both of you
will be learning to work together in new ways, with youth setting the goals and adults
helping to work for them.
2. Strategies for Getting Resource Help
Armed with clear data you can prepare a description of your situation
torgo with proposed goals and objectives for change. Your findings and proposals
can be circulated to the resouroes you contact for help and to groups within your
school and community as you continue to'seek.support for your change..
Such reports should go to the student council (if you have one.., and if you have-
one that works) for discussion, to faculty members and counselors, and then to the
principal, parents and, perhaps, bodalmmmbers. At each point you may gain support from
new sources,. and, with some luck, financial commitment to your proposals. Failure to
obtain just consideration from the principal indicates the need to organi2e:supportin
the community (parents, PTA and other organizations). Care in the selection of oanamitY
targets is important, for in some communities parents and community organizations are
not supportive and responsive to'student issues and concerns. Try and reach those
who can provide support at the school board: such support will be highly critical later.
In presenting your "case" before the school board, be clear about how the diagnosis
was condKted--facts :and examples--and the recommendations you are making for board
help. Try not to be arrogant or demanding; try to win over, not alienate, potential
allies on the hoard.
n Failure.to obtainlammideration fran the board warrants escalated demonstrative
action. All jamonstrations should be carefully planned. Participants should be
thoroughly nfonned before hand of the Problensand risks involved in a demonsteMAtm
4
20
-17-
and what such risks are expected to accomplish. Again; utilize the school magazine,
bulletin boards, flyers and leaflets, posters, banners, slogans and "rapping" to other
students during recess and between classes: their 'suroort and cooperation is
crucia. Students involved in- such demonstrations should recognize the dangersthe
threat of punishment, newspapers' distortion of the facts, friends giving in to parental
pressures, and threats by the teachers acid administration. They should also keep in
mind that the more students who demonstrate their legitimate concern, the
less the punishment and the greater the possibility of success.
The demonstration itself doesn't have to be a walk out. Staying in school yet
boycotting a class or certain clasies during certain part; of the day can be`effective
too: in most states it is not againtt the law to stay in 'scool yet boycott classes,
while it is agiinst the law not to be 'in school. During the boycott students can hold
their am classes, informing student; of the current state of affairs, "rapping" on
racism and oppfession in the schdol and formalizing strategies for increased pressures
on the administration and school board.,7
If you do decide to go outside the school, have a written statement for the local
newspaper and IV stations to keep facts about your situation from being distorted.
Do not let the media "stage" activities for you and carefully control who talks to them.
Also, your dsrone ation must be well organized; there must be a commitment on the part
of all students volved to behave according to pre-established rules and regulations
(e.g., no violence, trashing or provoking of police).
If you are already involved in a. protest movement and cannot wait to diagnose theix
situation as extensively as outlined above, then one of the student demands should be
that students serve on a camnittee to bring in outside researchers. This is important
because of the partisan nature of research: consultants who will support students'
partisan interests should be chosen.
21.

It is quite likely that ybu will have to take major respoetsiblily in locating .
the :Toney needed to finance such outside help and/or your &lenge program. Financial .
resources are always difficult to obLain, althoUgh there are hundreds a f foundations-I
and governmental agencies that are in the business of funding. More often than not the°
bureaucratic "clog" frustrates and deters those seeking financial support. Appendix 3
of this resource manual lists a few ziaticner organizations and federal government
of fices that provide special "brokering" services in locating funds for programs sponsored
by minorities and students. WM', IEWEVER, DO Nor HAVE FUNDS THEMSELVES.
A
Before contacting outside funding resources, it might be more appropriate to exhaust
local resources. For instance:
(1). The use of your am qtiestionnaire survey data, as described above, may result
in an allocation of money by your board of education.
(2) If the school system claiMs it does not have the neoessary funds to respond
to your request for outside help, get them to agree in principle to your proposals, then
take your data to save cammtity group or organization (such as Model Cities, CEO, or
ccmnunity mental health centers) and present your ca se. Solicit funds fran them
directly or get their help in submitting a proposel to another funding agency.
(3) Find interested teachers who are willing to support a student request that
the school board allocate money to be shared, for exanale, among teachers, students,
and sane conyunity group (e.g., PTO). Possession of their ownalthough smallbudget
increases the power of these groups by enabling them to contract directly with outside
consultants and other resources. It also stimulates the formation of teacher-student-
parent coalitions to work for inproved quality education.

'3. What' Adults Can Do To Help
-19-
Parents have more per than students but often less than those who run .and' are,
involved in the school. Nevertheles4, there are a number of ways you can be. helpful 'in reaching new resources for school change. Parents may try and teach students
A
how to do diagnoses, as outlined above. You may also folly./ up on raters of students'
being treated unfairly or inappropriately. Parents can formulate questions to askp
students who have experienced unfairness and get them to describe what :nappened,
including tines, dates, places and the specific outcomes. It is important to bespecific and to docunent a series of incidents. Take your findings to the principal --
often a parent's inquiry ..11 receive more rapid attention than that of a student.
A grOup of parents may 'wane to sulnit a statement suggesting that the schOol contact
an outside oonsultant order to make a more thorough diagnosis of protilens.
When racial and/or intergenerational strife erupts in school; parents can organize
and demand to be involved in the decipion to bring in outside consultants. You may
also act ineependtntly and hire a consultant directly. The basic question for parents
is whether or not you will organize to support students' grievances and concerns. All
too often adults--even well intentionedadults--"take over" a student movement. .
Teachers and administrators also can utilize some of the above strategies in
workinti with students. Educators have access to their professional associations
for liarious kinds of support and help. Adninistrators, who are usually more powerful,
have note resources at their disposal, yet administrators often find it difficult to
act uponstudents' demands or even their am values becabse of countervailing pressures
from the cannunity and their peers. Often in the face of crises, most of you (and
other adults, of course) attenpt to de-escalate 'that condition through repression or
co-optation of dissenters. Too often you as administrators agree to token solutions
without addressing yourselves to the underlying problems that brouglat on thecrisis situation. When ma might wisely opt to think througll the opportunities

for quality educational changes that are pOssikle under such conditions, you
freOuently find yourself overwhelmed by the oresstires flan oonnunitv forces, fears of
losing esteem and/or his position, and hampered by lace ofimmediate knowledge of
..specific strategies and alternatives. Thus, we also often find that schools are re.
Opened in a matter of hours or days, with the real causes of the crisis stin intact
and ripe for building toward an even greater dismnion. In large urban areas such
satols are often kept open with the presence of monitoring devices (security police,
television spycameras,.locked and =betimes chaineddcors) and the threat of legal
and physical punishment to these who "step out of line" tdeten'ticx1 roans, suspensions
and expulsions, corporal Runishment),all of whit result in spiraling educational costs
to laxotnyers.
'Moredmeaningfuland creative-administrative training g programs help free-up the
administrator frau his traditional role and provide him with new skills so that he
may bring broadly agreed upon values into congrUence with his an behavior as he
relates to studenth and. other groups in the school and community. Such training
programs encompass political strategies of leadership for dhsrlge; e.g., understanding
the partisan nature of research and being willing.to use it as such, can enhance a wise
administrator's political advantage in school change; also, being aware of those
critical periods during times of high tension when the board of education is most open to
administration proposals for basic school change._ Both teachers and administrators
can learn to utilize conflict to develOp support for long-term system change activities.

Chapter IV
The Many Faces of a Resource
As you would tailor a change program to fit. the specific needs of your situation,
so should you choose a resource capable of serving the specific needs of your change
program. In this section we begin todefine some general categories of resources,
emphasizing thOse distinguishing characteristics which you can use to cbterMine whether
or not you will need that, kind of resource. Different kinds of resources serve dif-
ferent purposes; yoU-ney seek out a resource to qet: (1) information, (2) help
in doing a diagnosis; (3) help in planning.. or inplenenting.your change program, (4)
training in new skills, (5) th4 political impact of a prestigious "outsider," (6)
saneone to carmiserate with, or (7) all of the above! . Because all of theseand more- -
kinds of resources are available, you will want to define as clearly as possible your
particular resource needs.
What follows is a descriptive list of resource-types. In oanpiling it we have
borrowed heavily franNthe work of mem/educational, social, and political theorists
who have given a great deal of thought to classifying resources" in terms of the roles
and strategies used by each. A lengthy and abstract analysis of each kind of resource
is not our purpose inthis manual. The list does attempt to provide Useable information
about types of resources, 'including (a) a 'general name for the resource-type, (b)
a very brief statement about` khe .typical 'role or strategy utilized by such a resource,
and (c) sane,,ideas about what to expect Fran or-beware of in your relationship with
that particular kind of resource. This list is intended as a guide to help you to define
your resource needs and to recognize and evaluate the services offered by any specific,

b) an ackncwledged"value centric"--as opposed to a "value neutral"--stance; i.e., hehas clear values of his own which he will announce and work for.
c) okay if on your side; groups with crepeting/conflicting values or interests willnot appreciate this role on behalf of their ccmpetition.
d) "establishment advocates," particularly, may be cloaked in using any of theother tunes listed below; i.e., the cloak is not necessarily visible ordeliberate; frequently even the resources themselves confuse their promotion'of systantwinftaining programs with "value neutrality."
2.. the ouorm TEAM
a) group effort whose strategy usually consists of a mix of human relations,advocacy, negotiation and organizational dhange and development techniquesto bring about short- and long-term school change.
b) team qaNcsition may reflect a demographic mix (by age, race,-sex) similar '
to that of the client system, and, through its various numbers, works ;
directly with the several contending groups in a system, often spendingtine initially in developing needed skills within the separate groips (e.g.,multiple styles and strategies that students can use in advocating theirpartisan interests).
c) relationships among team members themselves aremusceptible to the sameconflicts which exist among the contending groups they represent or serve. '
d) when a local "change team" is developed,tha interface of the team with therest of the system--the interaction of individual teamineMbers with theirrespective constituencies--is a key factor in the team's continuing useful-ness. Frequent sources of difficulty occur in the interfacing, especially in trust,oonmunication, transfer of skills and value and goal differences.
40.)3. the CURRICULUM DEVELOPER

a) develops material for use by non-experts
b) materials are, at least to some extent, pre-packaged
4. the HUMAN REIATICNS TRAINER
a) focuses on roles, phases of development and interpersonal interactionwithin groups through intentionally unstructured development process.
b) because understanding is derived from eandning =non experiences and thebehavior of participants as it unfolds in the situation, the lesson isan unusually personal and vivid one.
c) general goals include develeping,a climate of openness and inquiry that freesthe individual to think about his behavior, to expand his awareness of humaninteraction, to change his behavior through expanded self-discovery, and tomake clearer choices about the action he Woes.

e) not as important as it sounds: a lot can be done with a little (experienceshows the reverse also to be true!); stressing the importance of money mayprovide a cop-out... "We hardly have enough money to keep the schools open.We can't be spending what preciouslittle we have on change programs.Therefore we can't change!"
f) money may co-opt... you may end up trying to design fundable changes instead,
of trying to fund important changes.
9. the ORGANIZATIMAL DEVELOPER
a) takes both a planned and long term perspective' toward organizational change
and generally focuses on organizational members rather than organizationalstructures, technology, or its relationship to the larger social environment
outside the organization.
b) generally takes as his client the total organization and is directly
responsible to the formally Legitimized authorities of the organization.In this capacity usually accepts the organizational goals of these authorities
as given.
c) focuses on all aspects of the human organization (e.g., formal and-informal
oannunication and influence; satisfaction and effectiveness; and conflict).
10. the OUTSIDE AGITATOR
a) more often apparent than real; the label "outside agitator" often is used bythose possessing or as a diversionary tactic (to distract attention fromissues) and/or tode-legitirnizethe advocate of a low power group.
b) a special type of advocacy, often used effectively to build group oonsciousnessand cohesiveness within oppressed groups and to link to external groups
having similar issues.
c) a conflict escalating strategy.
11. the PROBLEM SOLVER
a) a systematic process designed to find solutions for oroblensfacing an.individual, grouch or organization.
b) useful only in the context of certain prescribed rules and regulations, the
first being that all parties must be able to reach agreement regarding what
the "problem" is!
c) attempts to instill WeillssoLiniernal people can do it themselves.
121 the RESEARCHER/DIAGNOSTICIAN a
a) skills can be particularly useful in diagnosing the problemineeds of thesituation in a school or system, in training local people to conduct the
diagnosis themselves, or in providing expert information on diagnostic
_ research of ocmparable situations.

b) needed for evaluation of the effectiveness of any Change strategies *pole-mented.
c) is a political tool; the process of research is neither "value neutral" (e.g.,issues chosen, questionnaire designs and sample selections bias findings)nor without an impact of its own (e.g., absorbipg.time, money, and attentionwhich might be spent or other phases of the change effort).
13. the SPEAKER
a) prestige source of information; on the basis of specialization or breadthin training and/Dr experience, or credentials.
b) can be used for cooling out or stirring up the local scene.
c) relationship with, client system is usually limited to a "one-shot" appearance;in fact, frequently unavailable for a long tern relationship.
14. the TENMERTRAINER
a) acuses on teacher role in learning process, but may emphasize attitudes,skills and/or peer processes of teacher and students.
b). highly dependent on motivation and ocetnitment of those being trained.
c) lack of structural support in the system for such training programs or forthe newly (re-) trained teacher is a frequent source of failure in thelong term.

Chapter V
Developing a Working Relationship With Outside Resources
Resources do not necessarily cone pre-packaged into "pure" types as suggested in
the proceeding list. In fact, they 'are more likely tot possess a mix of perspectives,
styles, techniques, strategiesand impact! As you communicate with prospective
resources, compare the above descriptions with what the 'resources are saying about,
)themselves, their perspectives, and their work. Be especially sure to find out...
Is the resource's focus consistent with the goals of your changeProgram?
Is the resource's style carpatible with your cwn?
Is the resource's strategy appropriate for the political situationin your system?
'Me relationship bebeen external resources and local personnel can bemire prob-
lematic at any number of points during their work together, particularly when there
is a lack of understanding and clarity at the outset of what each can expect of the
other. As a rule of thumb, it is a good ik . to have a contractual agreement on paper
describing any of the resource's serviccpvwhidi are to be provided and any renineration
which is to be given in future. For the protection of both the resource and your-
self, this docunent should be very clear on points suchas the following:
What group or groups would the resource be working for? Accountable. to? Whatgrolp or groups would the resource be working with? Have access to? Willthe resource be identified with one group to the detriment of an abilityto do needed work with other groups? For example, since loyalty to the
. administration may inhibit an effective consultancy, it may be necessaryto arrange for the resource to serve as the agent of a different, multiple,or "no special" interest group. [A word of caution: the last usuallyends up being the one paying the bills)
Hai much tine wit' the resource be devoting to working with your program? Hodfrequently and over what period of tine? At what point in the changeprogram does the work of the resource begin?
Whose agenda is going to get worked in the resource-client relationship? Willthe resource unequivocally serve the goals you've established for yourprogram? Do your needs fit into some of the general goals of the resource?If your goals differ,. can same compromise be reached in the working relation-ship?

' -27-
Haw will over - dependency on the resource be avoided? Withdrawal traumas
(problems in maintaining the continuity of the program as the relation-ship with the external resource is being terminated) minimized? Whatr roles and skills will you have acquired to enable you to miry onthe orogram? '
Boa, when and for what reasons can this contract be re-negotiated, and performance- of both parties be checked?
Probably the most important purpose that such a contract will serve is that of forcing
you and the resources to do same detailed planning. It will stress clarity of your
mutual interpretation of the problem diagnosis and your commitment to.and expectations
for the change iirogran. Be tough with yourself and the resource you would work with
by demanding specificity in goals, strategies for reaching those goals, and commitment
to the program. You will have no trouble finding barriers to your change efforts
without adding the problems caused by lack of clarity or agreement on basic problem
definitions, goals and dirricns. This may require that you and the resource confront
one another around differences and.do some hard negotiating to resolVe theseexcellent
practice for the work ahead!.
A very important issue in the relationship of the outside resource to groups in
the local system is the integration of "external" and "internal" resources used in
the change effort. Good coordination between these types of resources can be a major
source of strength in a change program. Poor 000rdination--as when external and
internal resources duplicate each other's services or contribute disparate and conflicting
"help " is equally disastrous... Internal resources alone often are not technically
capable of filling all the needs of your change program. You may wisely determine to seek
outside iesources to serve some of your change goals. Nevertheless, be cautious:
internal resources frequently tend to be under-valued and under-utilized. Experience
shows that when we turn boo quickly to outside expertise before first exploring those
resources,already existing in the system, the change program can lose money, lose time
in orienting the resource to the unfamiliar program (and vice versa), and most importAntly,
lose the support and cooperation of internal resources which could have (or think they
could have) served just as well.

REGARDING 1HE FOLLOW LNG LIST CF ORGANIZATIONS
This section consists of a list of agencies or consultant firms which offer
various resource assistance to groups working for change in their sdhools. In ccopiling
this manual, letters and questionnaires were sent to over 500 organizations whose work
we knew personallyalbeit in many cases only casually - or who were recommended by
.other organizations we had contacted. In the effort to locate resources which might be
of service to local groups working to change their schools we did not limit the
search to "educational" organizations. A copy of our letter and questionnaire
are included in Appendix C so that you may see what information was requested of the
organizations listed in this 7,9ual. These docarents are also made available as samples
for your Ise as you gather information co other resources.
Some of the resources noted in this manual can serve as training agents to local
groups who may wish to plan and implement their own change efforts once the appropriate
skills are acquired. Others may be used in more long-range, or on-going ways, in
which there is close contact between the local group and outside consultant for the
duration of a change effort. Still others can he viewed as supplemental to efforts
already underway.
For those agencies who returned the questionnaire we are able to provide detailed
information, based on their resoonses and the additional material that many of than
sent to us describing their goals and purpose, program and fees. The questionnaire
responses providedinformation on (1) the kinds of RESOURCES available (literature,
films, speakers); (2) what if anylimitations there were on the GROUPS to whom
these resources would be available (students, community members, teachers. etc.); (3)
whether or not a FIM3uOuld be charged for any of the resources or to any of the
groups; (4) any GEOGRAPHICAL LIMITS on the availability of their resources; and (5)
their specific ability to provide FINANCIAL SUPPORT for local programs initiated
by any group.

the other two services, possibly travel expenses and an honorarium. If the agency sent

it is usually feasible to contact only a small portion of the student body (teaching
staff, etc., whatever "population" you are surveying). In order to ensure that your
results are valid, i.e., reflect accurately as possible the responses you would get
if you contacted the entire population, the questionnaires must be filled out by
a representative sub-population: a "sample." Representatives in a sub-population
is ensured by random selection of the total population you want to study: random
sampling!
Points to Remember in Selecting Your Random Sample:
1. The size of your sample in a questionnaire survey of students Should be no
less than 10% of the total number of students in your school. For example:
If there are 1,500 students in the school, you should distributequestionnaires to at least 150 of them.
2. Perhaps the easiest way to get random selection of names to include in your
survey is to use an alphabetical list of all students in the school. If you can,
get permission from the principal to use the student roster for your sdool. Explain
what you are attempting to do and solicit his help--or have someone else approadh
him with more political pull. If you are unable to get access to this "master list,"
your student directory or hcmxmroam lists can be wed.
3. To get a sample of 10% of the students, take every tenth name on this
alphabetical list (10% of the student body = 1/10 of the student body, or one out of
every ten students).* It is important that every one of those selected does fill out
the questionnaire or your findings will be vulnerable to attack.
1"fot"--IIy4ant to sample 20% of the students, you would need to use every fifth name onthe list (20% = 1/5, or one out of every five students), and so on....
-94-
-95-
4. You can also get more elaborate with this procedure: for example, by
dividing your alphabetical list by grade level and taking every tenth person within
each grade, you will achieve a proportional representation of the grades in your
school. Further, if there is a small percentage of minority students in the school
(e.g., 20% or less) you may want to have all of than fill out questionnaires. In
that case, be sure to strike their names from the master list. Your findings would
be challenged if there were any duplication of peoWe in the two samples.

Included in this appendix is a sample copy of the letter and
questionnaire we sent to the various agencies or consultant firms
throughout the nation. The lack of time prevents us from following
or, those agencies which were slow in returning their questionnaires.
The list of agencies and consultant firms included is by no means
complete. Yet we feel that the entry forms and select listings
coupled with the conceptual issues and strategics for utilizing
resources can be of value to various groups seeking help. The enclosed

OCTEDUCATIONAL CHANGE TEAM
201 Catherine Street Ann Arbor Michigan 48108 (313) 764 1500
Dear
The Educational Change Team has contracted with the U.S. Of fioe of Education toproduce a manual of resources which are available to local groups interested ineffecting quality change in secondary schools. It is hoped the Resource Manual willfulfill several purposes:
1. Serve as a resource guide to those interested in programswhich attempt to ?ring about schcol change through the useof such techniques as the advocacy of the needs of oppressedinterest groups, and the constructive utilization of conflict;
2. Introduce new strategies for change, an well as resources toaid those as yet uninvolved in such programs,
3. Stimulate thought on, and the development of, local resourcesto fit the needs of specific local situations;
4. Present ideas on how to determine what resources might bestfill local needs.
The manual will consist of two major sections: 1) a general discussion of the issuesinvolved in the use of outside resources; and 2) annotated lists of organizationsoffering action and/or research, as well as financial, resources. In the second partof the manual we expect to include, in addition to educational organizations, somelocal, regional and national groups whose work has involved than in issues similarto those faced in public education, and whose resources would benefit those workingprimarily for educational change.
We would like your permission to list your organization in the manual. Inorder for us to do this, it would be helpful if you would send us descriptiveinformation about: 1) the organization, including its goals and purposes; and 2)the kinds of resources it can provide to various groups (e.g., students, teachers,administrators, com..unity).
For your convenience, we have enclosed a form on which to indicate such infor-mation. Please complete the form and return it with any descriptive brochures orliterature you might have available. Our annotation on your organization will bea oolpilaticn of the information from these two sources.

As it is presently constructed, the Educational Change 'Warn has two majorcomponents. The first, sponsored by the U.S. Office of Education, is the Network onEducational Unrest. This action arm of the Team as worked over the past year toestablish a network of regional teams able to i Aultne, when called, into localcrisis situations. The second major component of the irr is a project funded by theNational Institute of Mental Health to conduct research in selected schools throughoutthe nation that are experiencing different levels of conflict and crisis. The focusof this researth is to examine in depth the causes of crisis and overt conflict, ortheir absence, in these schools.
Based on our research and experience in this area, we have concluded that schoolcrisis and conflict may be traced to two major underlying causes: institutional racism:aid the lack of control that oppressed groups, particularly students, have over theirwn lives in school. We feel that in order to deal with these issues, there must
1:-. both consultant advocacy for the interest of oppressed groups, and the constructivee of, rather than the suppression of, the =Met inherent in any organization
composed of various interest groups.
As may be seen from the above, one of our primary interests is to indicate waysin which local groups outside of professional education (e.g., students and communitymembers) may obtain the resources they need to promote their interests. The enclosedform requests information about the kinds of resources your organization might haveavailable to student and community. Also, we %vele= supplemental information orcomments on this issue.
Thank you for your consideration and cooperation: we look forward to hearingfrom you.
